Today I went to a rail yard and got to check out the outside and inside of a weed spraying train. It was pretty cool. It had a short boom and a long boom, each with sprayers on them. It sprayed 14 feet out on either side. It also had mini weed spray cannons on the top for shooting out over other trains I guess. It consisted of a pipe car, two specialized boxcars, jampacked with pipes, hoses, pumps, barrels, storage tanks, generators, and computers. It also had four tanker cars: one for Roundup, one for some other weedkiller, and two for water. Overall, it cost one million dollars. Anyone seen any specialty trains?
